I sincerely hope your holidays were enjoyable ones. On a personal note, I continue to make rather remarkable progress in my recovery from the stroke I suffered in late October. I have progressed from a wheelchair to a walker, to a cane, and am now walking unassisted, albeit it with caution. My right arm and fine motor skills have made tremendous improvement and I can now write rather legibly, comb my hair, button my shirt, and as you can see from this message, use the computer keyboard. For all this progress I feel truly blessed and am extremely grateful. I am equally thankful for the cards, phone calls, e-mails, and thoughtful good wishes from each of you.

The primary causes of this development during the 1830s and 1840s were the rapid expansion of Boston’s inland railroad connections, the development of the clipper ship (which reached its most advanced form during the 1850s in the East Boston shipyards of Donald McKay) and the establishment of Enoch Train’s Boston to Liverpool packets. These developments encouraged industrial growth in the Boston area and intensified its traditional maritime activity by making the city a point of transfer from sea to land transportation.” The Maritime History of Massachusetts, 1783-1860 Samuel elioT moriSon front cover painting: Fitz Henry Lane, Clipper Ship Southern Cross (detail) Permanent collection, Peabody Essex Museum front cover photograph: from Portrait of a Port by W.H.

  • Frederick Douglass Family Story Foreword by Robert S
    The Frederick Douglass Family Story Foreword by Robert S. Levine and Afterword by Kim F. Hall “If I Survive brings to Frederick Douglass scholarship an exploration of his intimate relationship with his family and its commitment to social justice. This book challenges and expands Douglass scholarship.” Bill E. Lawson, Emeritus Professor, University of Memphis “This treasure trove of primary source documents reveals how the frequently told history of Frederick Douglass as an individual needs to be revised to account for the largely untold story of the work performed by his daughters and sons. It shows how the freedom forged by Douglass rested in no small measure on the collaborative work of his entire family, work that is now fully documented in print for the first time.” George Lipsitz, author of How Racism Takes Place Celeste-Marie Bernier and Andrew Taylor “This is a remarkable breakthrough book on collecting. It is both intimate and public as it encompasses letters, personal papers, artifacts, documents and photographs. This unique and well-researched book transforms the family and public archive of Frederick Douglass into a living monument that breathes new life into the idea of public memory.” Deborah Willis, University Professor, New York University “If I Survive is a treasure for scholars of the nineteenth century, of Frederick Douglass, of the world of Black life in the Reconstruction era and the reversals that followed. Collecting little-seen family photos, beautiful love letters, the sole manuscript copy of Douglass’s eulogy for William Lloyd Garrison, and hitherto inaccessible documents from the Walter O. Evans collection, Professors Celeste-Marie Bernier and Andrew Taylor offer their readers an unexpected gift, contextualizing and revealing the profound texture of America’s most unsung First Family.

    Historic Camera Club Newsletter © HistoricCamera.com Volume 11 No. 3, March 2013 accomplished hands of private home tutors. M. Carey studied along side his brother Henry Charles Lea in the early years, who was later regarded in the late nineteenth century as one of greatest scientific historians. After receiving his legal degree in 1847, continued health problems prevented Mr. Lea from pursuing a career in law. Following a rejuvenating trip to Europe, he began working in Professor James C. Booth's laboratory, and Mr. Lea's fascination with scientific research continued in his own home laboratory in the Philadelphia suburb of Chestnut Hill. He married his cousin, a young widow named Elizabeth Lea Jaudon on July 14, 1852, and the couple had a son, George Henry Lea. After his wife's death, he married Eva Lovering, the daughter of a Cambridge, Massachusetts professor. Professionally, Mr. Lea became fascinated with chemistry as it pertained to the art of photography. He published the landmark Manual of Photography in 1868, which is still in print. In the 1880s, Mr. Lea began experimenting with what he dubbed 'photo-salts,' first writing about silver haloids and their coloring changes when combined with certain chemicals in 1885. He noted how the silver salt and coloring phenomenon was similar to the lake formations aluminum oxide undergoes in a similar process. Four years' later, he made the discovery for which he is most famous - that silver can exist in three allotropic states that are light sensitive. The first state is allotropic silver proper, which may be either soluble or insoluble in water, can have almost any color but its insoluble variation always displays characteristics of plasticity.
